Think about it: how could an abnormal company that even charges people for its computers casually hand over a fortune of two hundred thousand?

The moment Qi Yi heard Ling Shaojun’s name, he seemed to lose his backbone. He paced anxiously back and forth in front of me, utterly despairing, as though disaster were imminent.

“I’m here to stop you. My young master said that if you came, you were to be thrown out.” The guard blocking Liu Qing recalled what Zijing had said when he carried Shiyao back and repeated the words to Liu Qing verbatim.

Since no one could unravel these mysteries, they could not keep wasting time on them forever. Knowing this, everyone ultimately shook their heads and cast aside their distracting thoughts.

Since I had accidentally encountered a soul demon in the Star Region, and the Great World was vast, no one knew whether soul demons had emerged elsewhere as well.

I left Su Qingcheng behind to chatter and shriek to herself while I kept skating across the ice, thinking as I went. Perhaps only this could make me feel a little better.

Zhao Hui walked along the lakeside and could not help glancing at Li Zhengguo. At that moment, Li Zhengguo noticed her and smiled happily. Embarrassed, Zhao Hui lowered her head and smiled as well.

After they got into the car, Zhang Jiaze watched Wang Zhonggang’s every movement nervously, afraid that the slightest discomfort would make him vomit in the vehicle. Fortunately, Wang Zhonggang simply lay there and slept obediently without doing anything strange, allowing Zhang Jiaze to relax somewhat.

It was as though he had merely watched a spectacle, remaining an outsider from beginning to end. He showed not the slightest resentment toward his elder brother and was extremely courteous. Now that he was a prince, while Prince Yong was merely a nobleman, he had no need to bow to Prince Yong on account of rank or status.

“Bang!!!” With a tremendous boom, the sharp claws collided head-on with the blade.

His disheveled, filthy appearance went without saying. Even in such cold weather, he had his chest half exposed, and one of them was actually reaching inside to scratch himself.

Caught completely off guard, Jiaoniang had no time to react before she was suddenly sent flying.

Master Li, wearing leather shoes with rubber soles, thought that they not only had to manufacture toy guns, but also put handmade leather shoes on the schedule at once.

After a while, Yuan still did not answer. The atmosphere grew awkward until Dagu shook Yuan by the shoulder, finally bringing him back to his senses.

Chen Meijia counted the money excitedly, though expecting her to finish counting it and determine the exact amount was probably unrealistic.

“You weren’t reciting this poem just now, were you?” Curry Sauce suddenly raised her head and looked at Zhao Haitang suspiciously.

When she still did not move, Feng Yuyi furrowed his brows, stretched out his long legs, and walked toward the soft couch on the other side.

Six flatbed carts arrived at Hunter’s Village bearing New Year gifts. Their business had stopped the previous day, and before nightfall Uncle Leopard had gathered the entire village to discuss how to thank Li Hua, their supplier of seasonings. Thanks to the roast-meat business, every household had some money left over, and they would be able to wear newly purchased clothes for the New Year. Uncle Leopard and the Lin father and sons could even wear newly made leather shoes.

When the time came, Zhang Gu arrived at the hepatobiliary surgery department. Passing a ward, he saw the old lady’s family from before packing their belongings, apparently preparing to leave the hospital.

Odd-Eyed Q, the second-highest elimination target. Its special ability was truly incapable of releasing even the slightest light-based skill; otherwise, you would experience exactly how powerful your own skill really was.

Liu Xie was already delighted, and now he saw Cao Pi present him with such an exquisite golden-thread nanmu box.

The thought was so horrifying that even Ye Hanchen sometimes felt he might have gone mad.

With Chen Chao presiding, he took the stage and delivered a speech, drawing a round of applause and congratulations from those around him.

Someone knocked on the door again from outside. Su Chen was puzzled. Whenever Vice President Wang or Vice President Chen came over, they would call ahead to ask permission and only come knock after he agreed.

From Wang Boju’s speech that followed, everyone could tell that he was criticizing the work of the bureau chief and the former political commissar.

When he got a clear look at Tian Shan’s features, so strikingly similar to Li Qiwen’s, the sight of Tian Shan’s brows and eyes triggered another conditioned reflex. He reached out and slapped the beaming Tian Shan across the face.

Although the two subordinates beside him felt somewhat uneasy at the sight of the imposing white-browed tiger, they still nodded in agreement and drew the sabers from their waists.

“All right, I understand. See whether we can discuss borrowing grain from Liu Biao this year!” Cao Cao covered his forehead and waved for them to leave.

“Heh, what nerve! Xiahou Ba, other people may fear you, but I don’t—and neither do my brothers!” Xu Chu thumped his chest, looking fully prepared to fight anyone who challenged him.

“It’s not that I refuse to sell it to everyone! It really is the only one of its kind!” Feeling the murderous looks everyone was giving him, Cao Pi explained helplessly.

Shang Guihua, Hu Sanniang, and Li Shishi turned from sorrow to joy, breaking into tearful smiles. They gathered together, chattering animatedly, mostly speculating about what the child would look like.

Mo Shaohua’s entire body twitched for a moment. Then he shifted his gaze away from the sword hilt and turned it toward Jun Xiyao.

Lin Ruoshuang quickly interrupted Gu Siyan. Weren’t depressed patients supposed to be immersed in their own worlds and indifferent to the outside world? Where was the promised indifference?

Nevertheless, she could not deny that his words instantly brightened her mood. The negative emotions that had weighed on her moments earlier seemed to vanish all at once.
